7?ie Reverend Moses B. Anderson, S.S.E. received an M.A. in Theology from Saint Xavier College in 1968. He was recently appointed Titular Bishop of Vatarba and Auxiliary Bishop of Detroit, Michigan. He is the first black bishop to be assigned to the Archdiocese of Detroit. The following story of his life and achievements, written by Catherine Haven, is reprinted with permis­ sion of The Michigan Catholic, where it first appeared on January 28, 1983.
